Crane Hire Newcastle FAQ’s
The simple answer is, that it depends on the mobile crane hire company and the type of crane hire you opt for.
Most companies provide a simple crane hire service in Newcastle where they allow you to rent out their equipment for an agreed period. Usually, this means that you are responsible for arranging your own insurance cover for the equipment, load, and personnel involved in the lift operation.
At BTC, we are proud to offer a damage waiver on CPA (Construction Plant Hire Association) hires and provide full cover for contract lifts. That’s why, if you’re new to crane hire in Newcastle and would prefer to hand over the responsibility to us, we highly recommend you arrange a contract lift.
With a contract lift, all of the legalities will be taken care of, but you will need to provide the appropriate cover for:
More details on this can be found on our dedicated insurance page.
The cost of mobile tower crane hire in Newcastle varies depending on the type and size of the crane and how long you need to hire it. The larger the crane and the longer you need it to be kept on your site, the more you will pay.
It’s also worth noting that the time and date of hire can also influence the cost, with weekends, evenings, and bank holidays costing the most.
CPA hire tends to be the cheapest option for crane hire, however, we will only supply a certified crane and operator. That means you will need to provide your own competent team to supervise the lift from start to finish.
Whilst it will cost you more to arrange a contract lift, you can relax knowing that every aspect is taken care of professionally. We will even complete the method statements and risk assessments and provide full insurance coverage.
